WAEC LAUNCHES DIGITAL RESULT PLATFORM
WAEC DIGITAL CERTIFICATE: PERMANENT SOLUTION TO RESULT FALSIFICATION & EASE OF ADMISSION INTO HIGHER INSTITUTIONS
BY JENNIFER NWOSU
The emergence of West African Examinations Council (WAEC) digital certificate access and confirmation platform has given a remarkable respite to stakeholders in the entire value chain of result verification, confirmation and as well created ease of processing student’s admission into tertiary institutions anywhere in the world at record time.
“The platform is compliant with global best practices by ensuring that the data of candidates are protected securely and cannot be accessed by third parties without the consent of certificate owners.”
The certificates are now easy to carry about without any fear of loss or theft, and the recovery of lost certificates is possible with the app. The certificate owners can also print their digital certificates in high quality to have a physical copy if they so desire.
The platform, which is available to both old or new candidates, will enable over 30 million certificate holders to access and share the original copies of their certificates from anywhere in the world.
As a proof of competence and integrity, WAEC however made good it’s claim by ensuring that as it released the 2023 West African Senior School Certificate Examination, (WASSCE) results there was also room for candidates to simultaneously access their digital certificates.
This novel feat as well gave opportunity to schools anywhere in the world to seamlessly process the admission of the candidates into higher institutions of learning in 2023 and onward.
The HNO during a press briefing in August, 2023 said:
“Gentlemen of the Media, the results of candidates who wrote the WASSCE for School Candidates 2023 are being uploaded on the results website, as I speak a very big innovation is that after checking the result, candidates can access their Digital certificate simultaneously.” The HNO stated.
